The players are already here. The structure around them is not.

Most of Africa plays on a phone, so a smartphone and a data bundle are enough to take part. What is still thin is well-run tournaments, professional production and sponsorship packages built for African audiences. That is the gap we fill.

From a lounge in Eldoret to a global stage.

Talent is everywhere. The route up is not. We are building it, one level at a time.

  1. Community play

    Open play in lounges and online. Anyone can enter.

  2. City competition

    Nairobi, Eldoret and Mombasa leagues.

  3. National stage

    Kenya's qualifiers and finals.

    East and Central Africa, then the continent.

  5. Global stage

    Kenyan teams are already winning abroad.

Kenya is moving from taking part to hosting.

The Global Esports Federation has named Kenya its strategic esports hub in Africa. Nairobi has already staged the first PUBG Mobile Africa Cup finals and the East Africa finals of the Carry1st Africa Cup 2026.

  • Up Against Hell took the East Africa title in Call of Duty: Mobile.
  • Kenya's eFootball console pair reached the top four at the FIFAe Continental Championship in Casablanca in their first season.
  • About 13% a year is the growth Mordor Intelligence expects for Kenya's gaming market, among the fastest in Africa.

The arena stays open.

Women are joining African esports in growing numbers, but still report discrimination and the high cost of equipment. We want to build a route in and a route up for women, girls and players outside the big cities.
